Editor's Note

Bill Monroe started the following blog on LinkedIn with the question: "I say that there is NO such thing as an 'IT' project. What do you say?"

This challenge gave rise to a lot of interesting rejoinders too valuable to be lost in cyber space. As the owner of the discussion, the following observations have been assembled as a thread and heavily edited to make it easier for reading on line. Nevertheless, the objective in each case is to retain the participants' original intent.
